Test pilot Jack Woolams - died Aug 30.'46 in a P-39

Can anyone tell me where Jack's log books and person collection may have gone. I am trying to find them as Jack may have flown Me262 AM52 (buired in Toronto) when it was at Brize Norton in the UK in 1945 or 46. He died when the tail of his modified Aircobra's tail fell off in high spd and then crashed in L. Ontario near Youngstown, NY. Two young boys found his body just after the crash.

Would anyone have any clues on where to start looking? He had two young boys that were last living in San D., California in 1946.

Any insight?
